Abstract
The disclosure relates to a door mirror for use in a motor vehicle having a door mirror positioning device for controlling the attitude of the mirror visor with respect to the door from the interior of the motor vehicle through remote control. The device includes a first switching arrangement for selectively driving an electrical motor accommodated in the visor in a desired rotational direction to move the visor to an opened (projected) or closed (retracted) position from the closed or opened position, and a second switching arrangement for stopping automatically the rotation of the motor at a time when the visor reaches one of the opened and closed positions, whereby the operation of the device can be facilitated.
